The leak of Spotify
playlists is totally irrelevant, but it has
revealed some interesting things. The Pitchfork founder in particular got found out.
As it turned out, the guy is a closet Nickelback fan. This is funny and rather
sad. Funny – because it is Pitchfork. Sad – because you can see how easily
Facebook years will let that happen. Some people just have to build another life around themselves,
something fake but ultimately more attractive.
A century of fakers,
and Stuart Murdoch put it so beautifully on a train from London to Glasgow (or
that’s what I hear):
'Cause you’re making blinkers
fashionable
And fashionably you’ll say
‘All is equal in love and war’
And ‘I’m sorry, but I’ve got some
things to do’
And you pretend to read a book
You’ll never finish till the day
That the author dedicates it
To a century of fakers…
